Ireland’s construction industry has frequently been cited as one of the key drivers in the growth of the Irish economy over the last decade. Building on strong domestic capability, Ireland’s construction sector has produced a diverse array of major players in many international markets.
Organisations within Ireland’s strong construction sector continue to offer genuine competitive advantages, advantages that travel from country to country and across a comprehensive range of products and services – from construction and building materials, concrete and timber products, off-site building systems, building automation and management, HVAC, engineering and professional services, all of which are represented on the www.ireland-construct.com portal.
Increasingly, Ireland’s innovation and capability in the off-site construction sector are becoming widely heralded. The reach of our Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) including timber-frame, pre-cast concrete and light gauge steel panel solutions as well as volumetric bathroom and kitchen pods is growing.
